    Ok, I missed survivor last week and found out it can be downloaded from cbs.com. It has to be played on a pc with windows media player and has some type of digital rights included. Has anyone been able to convert this to a format that can be burned and then played on a "real tv"? It's not really a big deal but I would prefer watching it on my big screen tv in my living room as opposed to a 17" monitor in my basement.

    Any help is appreciated.

    Do a search of the forums for DRM and you will find a few suggestions for trying to beat it. It does not appear to be a straight forward exercise.

    You could output that to a VCR or DVD recorder as well.

    You might need to google it for the usage.
    If in doubt, Google it.

  7. I've tried converting DRM, and it has never worked for me (and I'm fairly savvy). Just go with the TV-Out from a video card to a DVD-Recorder.

    Or if you have a capture card, TV-Out from video card to Video-In on the capture card, turn on the video capture program, set up your dual screen mode, then maximize the video in the capture window, and play and record.
